RISMultiobjective Optimization of Rehabilitation and Leakage Detection Scheduling in Water Distribution Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a procedure for optimal medium-term scheduling (e.g., over a time window of 5 years) of rehabilitation and leakage detection interventions in a water distribution system given predetermined budget ...
Discussion of “Effective Approach for Solving Battle of Water Calibration Network Problem” by Zheng Yi Wu and Thomas M. Walski
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Multistep Approach for Optimizing Design and Operation of the C-Town Pipe Network Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A multiobjective approach is used here to optimize design and operation of the C-Town pipe network, searching for trade-off solutions between (1) installation cost, (2) operational cost, and (3) cost of the ...
Multistep Approach for Optimizing Design and Operation of the C-Town Pipe Network Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A multiobjective approach is used here to optimize design and operation of the C-Town pipe network, searching for trade-off solutions between (1) installation cost, (2) operational cost, and (3) cost of the pressure-reducing ...
Leakage Detection and Localization in a Water Distribution Network through Comparison of Observed and Simulated Pressure Data
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this paper, a pragmatic approach for leakage detection and localization is presented to solve the problem introduced within the framework of the Battle of the Leakage Detection and Isolation Methods (BattLeDIM). The ...
Automated Household Water End-Use Disaggregation through Rule-Based Methodology
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Application of smart meters to the residential sector can provide insight into where and when water is used, thereby enabling utilities to achieve an efficient management of water distribution systems. Moreover, detailed ...
Extending the Global-Gradient Algorithm to Solve Pressure-Control Valves
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This work introduces two novel methods to the solution of water distribution networks equipped with pressure-control valves based on the global-gradient algorithm (GGA). One method, which can be viewed as an extension of ...
Stochastic Approach for the Analysis of Demand Induced Transients in Real Water Distribution Systems
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A stochastic approach for modeling and analysing the transients due to the users’ water consumptions in a real water distribution system is presented. The analysis is based on field measurements of water consumption at ...
Intermittent Water Supply System Rehabilitation through a Multiphase Methodology Based on Network Analysis and Hydraulic Modeling
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Intermittent water distribution systems supply over a billion people worldwide, a number expected to increase due to water scarcity, population growth, and urbanization. This study proposes a multiphase methodology for the ...
Methods for Preserving Duration–Intensity Correlation on Synthetically Generated Water-Demand Pulses
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes the application of three different methods for preserving the correlation between duration and intensity of synthetically generated water-demand pulses. The first two methods, that is, the Iman and ...
